In MEMORY OF PEARL HARBOR


To those I knew who were there that day and to those who lost their lives.

The full brochure is too large to scan and post so I give you just a few folded and unfolded pages. This dates from early 1960s when I lived in Hawaii. In fact, that sandy looking shore at the entrance to Pearl Harbor is where I lived in military housing, two blocks from the beach.

  1. The local rag mentioned this AM that there were five local men at Pearl Harbor, one of them died in the initial attack. The other four have since passed on as well. God Rest Theirs Souls.

  2. I knew three men who were in the Navy who survived, one aboard one of the ships. Then of course people in Hawaii had many stories. One teacher talked about a bomb exploding right next to her house.

    Yes, indeed may the all rest in peace.
